This document is a supplement to the Air Force Research Laboratory Manufacturing Technology "1998 Project Book." It is not a replacement, but rather an enhancement to an already vital "living" report with the specific purpose of promoting the transfer of technology. It is organized in such a way as to provide information needed to decide whether the technology described will be useful. For further questions or information, the Technology Information Center's telephone number is listed below. In this supplement, new projects since the publication of the 1998 Project Book in November 1997 are summarized on a single page. The summary contains an explanation of the need for the project, the approach taken to accomplish the effort, the benefits expected to be realized, the current status, the name of the project engineer, and the performing contractor. For projects completed since the print- printing of the 1998 Project Book, there is a summary of the final benefits of the program, the status of the final technical report or the report number, and the Project Book page number for reference purposes. For active projects (those described in the 1998 Project Book which are still active), there is information on the current status of the project and the Project Book page number.

Robert W. Duffner's Science and Technology: The Making of the Air Force Research Laboratory addresses the far-reaching implications of science and technology by recounting the events that led to the creation of a single Air Force laboratory. This engaging story of how the Air Force moved from 13 separate labs to one consolidated lab reflects that service's determination to reinvigorate its science and technology infrastructure and thereby strengthen the nation's defense for the twenty-first century. Part one considers why the Air Force decided to consolidate its far-flung science and technology enterprise into one lab, while part two relates how the service implemented the new lab. Dr. Duffner offers a unique perspective on a watershed event in the life of the United States Air Force.
